Solo Safe on Aux Channels and Buses

As mentioned above, we recommend that you insert

the Console1 plug-in on all your DAW channels,

including single tracks, aux channels and buses. But

in order for Console1’s Solo function to work as

expected, you should set aux channels, eects send

channels, subgroup buses and the master bus—es-

sentially, any channels in your DAW mixer that are

not single audio or software instrument tracks—to

Solo Safe. If you are using an aux channel for the

incoming sound of a Rewire sound source, such as

Propellerheads Reason, this can however be viewed

as an instrument track. We consequently recom-

mend you do not set this to Solo Safe.

See “Understanding Solo Safe” on page 35 if you’re

interested in why this setting is needed for Con-

sole1’s Solo function to behave as expected. Other-

wise, simply follow these steps:

• Open the Console1 plug-in on all aux channels

(except Rewire aux channels that handle incom-

ing sound signals), eects channels, subgroup

buses and the master bus in your DAW.

• Activate Solo Safe setting by clicking this but-

ton in the plug-in window.

Any time you press Solo on the Console1 hard-

ware, the text ” ” will appear in the On-

Screen Display above any channel that has been set

to  .
